When does bleeding stop?

I had my baby 12 days ago via emergency c section and still bleeding quite a lot. When did this stop for you? Obviously everyone is different but it feels like it’s been ages, is this normal?

I’m 4 weeks post c section and I’ve only just pretty much stopped. Like you said, everyone is different though. I saw a post where someone stopped after a couple of weeks and another where they were still bleeding 8/9 weeks after. I think the average is around 6 weeks ish x

I’m 16 days post c-section and have very little bleeding now

I’m almost 5 weeks post C-section and I only stopped bleeding or having any signs of blood a few days ago. I was told by my midwives and the health visitor that the bleeding can continue up to 6 weeks after but it’s different for everyone! 😊 x

I bled for around 5 weeks, it would lighten for a few days then have a day or 2 again of heavy then lighten again. I then had my period at 6 weeks, I was so happy when that finally stopped 😂😂

Mine wasn't heavy but on and off until 5 weeks x
